Apples and Pumpkins

 

What is my favorite fall activity to do with my family?  Pumpkin and apple picking!  With having such a busy schedule it took us until the end of October to make this happen but we got it done.  With more apples than we know what to do with and a pumpkin for each of us, with the exception of Bri - who insisted on getting two.  

How do you get the apples at the top of the tree?  These two had the brilliant idea to shake it.  A few fell so it kind of worked.  

But the apples that are low enough for us to reach are so much better.  

Then it was time to find the perfect pumpkins.  

Success!

And when I saw this beautiful yellow pumpkin sitting all by herself I knew she had to go home with me.  

Aside from some of the usual spouts of arguing between us and the kids it was a pretty good Sunday, starting with a great church service beforehand.
